A seemingly endless battle.
“Huu.”
A battle where even Go Johan had to catch his breath.
And.
“……”
Flinch.
A battle that made even demons step back.
“D-don’t push!”
“Get lost!”
“Aaaah!”
Even demons pushed and confronted each other as if they were ordinary humans.
“I-is this even possible?”
It was a sight that made viewers feel deep emotions.
Monsters that casually slaughtered people and were hard to even face.
Tremble tremble.
To think they trembled and were gripped by fear just like themselves.
However, demons couldn’t even easily flee.
Drip.
Black lava falling from the sky.
Writhe.
Black roots pushing through the ground became a prison, confining them while simultaneously expanding territory.
Their only escape route to survive.
“Die!”
Just Go Johan, that one shining existence.
Whoosh!
But the result was obvious.
Three-horned demons were mere flies that couldn’t withstand a single strike from Go Johan who’d nearly regained his true power.
Gulp.
This was, for both Go Johan and the demons.
“D-damn it…”
A too-familiar scene.
Trabania’s demon slayer, phantom knight, fanatic and war god.
“To think we must face that monster again…”
But circumstances worsened further.
“…Extinguished.”
“What?”
“I said extinguished! You fucking demon idiot!”
They could launch large-scale operations against Michael in Trabania because that monster-like Michael was still just human.
Though a monster unfit to be called human, ultimately a mortal who couldn’t kill demons.
Roar.
But now, demons struck by those blows were becoming black ash and extinguishing.
Swish.
Those sky-blue eyes turned toward the muttering demons.
“……Huh?”
When they felt something was wrong, it was already too late.
Whoosh!
Half their face burst and scattered from some pressure.
“Aaaaargh!”
Being a demon they survived and screamed.
Whoosh!
But then turned to ash with the demon standing beside them.
The demon’s last sight, between comrades scattering as ash first.
Grin.
It was smiling.
As if this moment was so enjoyable.
As if this very moment.
“Ah.”
Was their reason for existence.
“O Goddess.”
Crack.
Go Johan stomped the ground.
Until now in Black Gates, facing the few demons was at most, but demon invasions were actually like this.
Devouring surrounding areas through the Demon King’s horns planted in various places, making them territories.
Those places became complete demon realms that couldn’t be subjugated by any method, becoming land everyone abandoned.
Only one.
“Aaah!”
Only Michael succeeded in entering there and destroying the Demon King’s horns.
“O Goddess!”
Rather, for Michael, no, Go Johan, battles until now were more troublesome.
Those hiding their identities, multiplying like cockroaches and increasing numbers.
Using all methods, corrupting humans through vicious ways was rather more tiresome for Go Johan.
For Go Johan.
Rumble!
This suited him better.
Sweeping away.
With overflowing power, just destroying and destroying again.
That was the battle Michael did best.
“Your knight has returned.”
Lava boiled in the cracks of split earth.

-Shout together! Defect!
“Defect! Defect!”
“Great leader!”
“True ruler!”
“For Go Johan-nim!”
North Korean residents were creating a bizarre procession matching YongYong’s slogans.
That sight of tens, hundreds of thousands following a few across dark and damp land was like a fairy tale.
“Aaah!”
Reminiscent of the Pied Piper.
Even YongYong couldn’t understand this.
No matter how urgent the situation, their madness was incomprehensible.
What could understand this scene.
“No need to hurry.”
Only Kim Se-hyeon could be said to.
Kim Se-hyeon leading a crowd nearing hundreds of thousands briefly looked back.
Though exposed to demonic beasts and demons due to such a long procession.
“……”
They couldn’t easily attack.
Many humans? To them it would be close to a well-prepared buffet.
Just attacking, hitting the waist and fleeing could have inflicted much damage.
But the reason they couldn’t.
‘Because of this madness.’
Because of the madness covering North Korean residents now.
That wasn’t ordinary madness.
-Say de!
“Say… de?”
-No, shout! De!
“De!”
-Shout! Fect!
“Fect!”
That ridiculous thing.
‘Magic energy and curses mixed to give power to voices.’
Yoon Seung-ah, Lee Ha-yeon.
A kind of magical madness created by the apostles’ power.
Added to that.
Boom!
It interlocked with the great curse dwelling in Kim Se-hyeon, exerting even greater power.
North Korean residents whose mental systems originally collapsed close to breakdown from brainwashing.
Simultaneously, body balance broken from being unable to even eat became bodies easier for curses to dwell.
“Aaah, great Go Johan-nim!”
The dwelling curse was blind loyalty to Go Johan.
No.
‘Replacement.’
They’d already replaced some existence dwelling in their heads with Go Johan.
And simultaneously the existence called Go Johan filling their heads connected again with magic energy and curses, amplifying.
Boom!
They succeeded in creating a giant barrier.
Stand.
And finally the group Kim Se-hyeon led arrived at the gate they entered.
Still open, it was fixed by some power and hadn’t closed yet.
“Advance toward the gate of salvation.”
Kim Se-hyeon said.
“Defect?”
“Right.”
Chuckle.
Kim Se-hyeon who became absurd also smiled dryly saying.
“Defection.”
“Defect!”
Were they Pokémon or something?
It seemed only defection and Go Johan were in their heads.
Nod.
When Kim Se-hyeon nodded, some of the Association players who came began guiding them.
Though gates would be frightening.
‘Must admit it’s efficient.’
Their madness now couldn’t be stopped by anything.
Swish, swish.
North Korean residents were throwing themselves into the gate without hesitation.
That’s when.
“You there, you can’t.”
“De…fect?”
“Don’t talk nonsense.”
Kim Se-hyeon raised her sword.
Bright red blood.
And.
“Why, why this? We too…”
“You were never allowed to survive from the start.”
“……! What!”
“Party officials?”
“……!”
At Kim Se-hyeon’s words, the pointed-out group looked around and began backing away.
“Those with even the slightest connection to this situation.”
Shing.
The blood-red blade began shining brighter.
“Those who’ve sucked residents’ lifeblood to fill their own bellies until now.”
That list had been prepared long ago.
For this.
“That person’s order not to let any through.”
“Bastards! Kill her!”
The players among them simultaneously exploded their power and tried to rush at Kim Se-hyeon.
Slash.
Kim Se-hyeon already passed them and stood opposite.
Whoosh!
Pouring blood.
This was just the beginning.
Shing.
Taehan’s battle priests were already approaching the group with weapons drawn for judgment.
“Johan isn’t the god of people like you.”
For this, they didn’t deploy others in this operation.
Because to someone’s eyes it would look like mere slaughter.
But having seen and received reports on all their actual circumstances, Kim Se-hyeon could assert.
This.
“Begin purification.”
Was purification.

“Ah.”
Go Johan stopped, sensing something.
Dizzy head.
His faint consciousness was becoming clear.
Not because influenced by anything.
‘O Goddess.’
Go Johan himself paralyzed reason and clouded his mind.
One of the methods he’d learned through countless long battles.
To protect the mind that wore down and tired unlike the body.
‘How long has it been?’
The flow of time was also uncertain.
But one thing was certain.
Beeeep.
Only strange noise flowed from the insane speaker that had been shouting defection noisily.
That was a signal.
‘They’ve come to their senses.’
That’s when.
-Over 80% evacuation completed.
How long had it been, a voice that felt strangely nostalgic.
“Seung-ah.”
Yoon Seung-ah, her voice.
-All preparations are finished. Shall I wait longer?
Go Johan shook his head.
How nice it would be to save everyone.
But this was war.
Rumble!
There was an appropriate time.
They’d already done their best efforts.
The Demon King’s horn was trembling.
“Did you just notice now?”
It also meant little time remained.
“Seung-ah. The rest is up to the Goddess.”
May fate guide them.
If luck reached them they’d survive, if not, it couldn’t be helped.
But there was one thing he could say for certain.
‘The existence that inflicted suffering on you.’
Words dedicated to those fading lives.
“I’ll kill them all.”
Whether human or demon.
Revenge.
It was words like a vow to definitely accomplish at least that.
-The captain saved even those who couldn’t be saved.
Without Go Johan, all North Korean residents would have become sacrifices.
-Don’t worry.
Don’t worry, he wouldn’t.
“Right.”
But he answered.
“Begin.”
That’s when.
Booooom!
Vibrations began ringing throughout North Korea as if a huge earthquake occurred.
At this moment, in the divine sight’s world that activated, Go Johan could clearly see.
Giant black threads wrapping North Korea.
Above them.
Whoosh!
Other threads were connecting.
Right now this.
“All Black Gates occurring worldwide.”
Black Gates occurring in the world.
“Connect to North Korea.”
They were summoning them to this place.
